Support Reel Assembly

Abstract

A support reel assembly for installing vapor barrier on a wall of a building includes a first bracket that can be mounted to a wall of a building. A second bracket is provided that can be mounted to the wall having the second bracket being aligned with the first bracket. A first bubble level is coupled to the second bracket and a second bubble level is coupled to the second bracket for leveling the second bracket along a horizontal axis and a vertical axis.
